Because of the oil drilling in deep sea. Whales have very sensitive ears because they use sonar to locate food and navigate in their surrounding. The ears are like our eyes to them. The oil drilling produce a very loud noise causing the whale become deaf. They couldn't 'see' their world anymore. That's way we heard a lot of whales stranded on beaches.
